Baraka is an amazing film because it demonstrates a lot of views in many fields in the world. In the film, we can see beautiful scenes of nature, various cultures, industrialized life, wars, and religions. As the scenes of this film goes, we can feel our emotions going up and down. Among all of these scenes, my favorite one is the beauty of a waterfall.
When I saw the great amount of water pouring down, I feel that the power of nature is so enormous that a human may never conquer it. Besides, I reminded the contents of "The Art of Travel" while I was seeing this view. There is a chapter in the Art of Travel, which is mainly illustrating the concepy of sublime. The view if the great waterfall matches the term, sublime. The waterfall is sublime because it has the great power to destroy anything that challenges it. However, the water does not have the will to hurt anyone even though it contains dangers for many people if they fall into it.
The other reason why I love this scene is that I saw several colors in this view. There was not only the white of the waterfall but also other colors in the fog, sky, and even water. Actually, if you see carefully, the color of the waterfall was not only white but also yellow and brown. In addition, the fog on the water was relatively light grey. Within the fog, we could see a little rainbow, which was so colorful. The light grey of the fog made the colors of the rainbow stand out. In fact, these vivid colors added gentleness into this unyielding and majestic waterfall.
In conclusion, I love this view because it reminds the book that I read, and I start to feel the contens of the books. Facing the sublime is an amazing feeling. Actually, I have ever seen a view containg such a great amount of water except the Pacific Ocean. Besides, the colors of this scene are also fantastic. Even if it is a waterfall, it contain differnt colors. Moreover, the fog and rainbow make this view more colorful. Thus the waterfall is not only breathtaking but also attractive. These are the reasons why I was absorbing into the film while I was seeing this great waterfall.

I understand that you really like this film. However,it is really difficult for me to understand director's intentions.
ReplyDeleteI like your description about the waterfalls. It's interesting that you percieved various colors on them. I just felt the water was white, ivory, and pale brown. Your writing recalls the beautiful rainbow to my mind again. Thanks!
